Sobre este artículo
In 1959 a young monk named Tsung Tsai (Ancestor Wisdom) escapes the Red Army troops that destroy his monastery, and flees alone three thousand miles across a China swept by chaos and famine. Knowing his fellow monks are dead, himself starving and hunted, he is sustained by his mission: to carry on the teachings of his Buddhist meditation master, who was too old to leave with his disciple.
Nearly forty years later Tsung Tsai — now an old master himself — persuades his American neighbor, maverick poet George Crane, to travel with him back to his birthplace at the edge of the Gobi Desert.
Sinopsis
George Crane is a poet as well as a translator of poems from the Chinese ( A Thousand Pieces of Snow , co-authored with Tsung Tsai). He lives in upstate New York. Bones of the Master is his first nonfiction work.
